Recipes

1-2 racks baby back ribs

Any preferred BBQ sauce or rub (see recipe below for an easy and delicious BBQ rub)

Heat wood-fired oven to 200-250 degrees F.

Season ribs with BBQ rub or sauce and refrigerate overnight. When ready to cook, wrap ribs in tinfoil and place in a roasting pan with rack to keep them elevated. For extra flavor, you may add seasoned kiln-dried firewood, such as Hickory or Pecan. Cook for two to three hours until meat is tender and thoroughly cooked.

To maintain your oven's temperature, it will be necessary to add a piece of wood from time to time.
